Electronic Music 411 - tantan

like many things, one ought take their shitake in moderation... too many in yr stirfrizzle and you overwhelm yourself with chewy mushroomness.

I like the percussive stuff and the arppegiated stuffs... I don't care for that lead synth all that much, maybe its just too prevalent in the mix.
the doomsday chords are cool too.

re-listening that synth sorta reminds me of "Final Countdown"--certain cheesiness to the whole enterprise that I enjoy

"doomsday" was a seriously awesome movie

The rad streak of tantan releases continues. I'm totally Ok with the cheesy lead synth. You put it into a very nice context. And the compositional development after it goes away is absolutely delicious.

loving the bass pad melody - fucking excellent, even the electric piano/bell melody, terrific. that lead-synth is super 80s sci-fi!

shiitake sushi rolls! mmm.

Hey! Roshi told me my album reminded him of Bola. Does that mean that Tantan and I sound the same? Are we long lost brothers separated at Bola?

LOL...you both had these arpeggiated-like melodies and structures that sounded a lot like Bola.

It's better than both sounding like Enya.
